Review for Dr. Reiter

Review for Dr. Maldonado

Review for Dr. Deeb

Dr. Lima was very concerned about my condition. Discussed all potential treatments, both pro and con. Not only treatments, but what to expect after shoulder surgery. He has an excellent “bedside” manner. Made me feel very comfortable.

Review for Dr. Lopes De Lima

Time management issues, leaving a feeling of not being properly cared for but pushed through the system.
